The Undervaluing of China and What it Will Mean in a Transforming Global Economy

With the world economy entering a period of take-off, the two great cultures of the globe will meet and transform each other. One, the West, is overvalued economically against the other, the East. As the valuations of these two great civilizations merges together, the potential benefits are enormous while the risks of tension can be managed with effective leadership in both communities.

The World She is a Changing

We are witnessing the transformation of the world. Never before have so many different and strongish forces for change coincided as in this and the coming decades; financial, ecological, technological, social, environmental, psychological, economic, medical, political. You name it. Whatever, sphere you can think of is a-changin.

What we are seeing is a shift from a world driven by linear thinking into one that is modestly non-linear. What this means is that the resolution of many problems is finally being tackled in the international arena. This is potentially the period of take-off in which the many non-)participant economies around the globe begin to participate more and more effectively. However, it is a period in which the forces against change will be enormous. There are many vested interests in the old linear orders.

Rather than allow the change to advance, those against change will press for order and regimentation. The fear of change is such that many will force the issue of keeping things the way they are against their own best interests. This could produce nasty conflict.

The thing to understand about a non-linear world is that it creates natural variety and moves increasingly away from homogeneity. It is the rainbowing of culture that will strike most people the hardest. As cultures increasingly intermingle, those vested interests within cultures will battle against the variety of options that will allow people to substitute away from regimentation and regulation.

The old norms will be replaced by variegated strains of wonderful opportunities for those that have been held back artificially and who did not see their future as within the world community. Global forces will add to the change process given greater scope for creativity in more and more arrangements.
